STAY WINTER
Sinopsis
stay winter: light the torch
in dark where life is forged
in the belly; draw breath -
draw rein
Partly inspired by a blacksmiths apprenticeship, Nidhi Zak/Aria Eipe has wrought a range of gleaming elements into the poems of Stay Winter. The figure of the horse recurs: we encounter the twin steeds of the warrior Cúchulainn as well as the champion Thoroughbred Red Rum. Both Celtic Brigid and Greek Hephaestus appear as gods of the forge. Amid a powerful Irish literary heritage including Yeats, Joyce and Heaney are painterly translations of Neruda and Lorca. Stay Winter captures the thing of beauty and the dark thing as the poet confronts the shadow aspects of the self. It conjures a compelling wintry realm in which love is made and remade anew.
